Velocity of the ball (v) = 22.2 m/s
Distance from the base of the building where the ball falls (d) = 36.0m
We know that, Velocity (v) = distance (d) / time (t)
From the above equation,
Time (t) = distance (d) / velocity (v)
Substituting the values for distance and velocity in the above equation,
Time = 36.0/22.2 = 1.62 seconds

When the ball is falling down, it accelerates due to gravity
This acceleration (a) = 9.8 m/s²

Now we need to find the height of the building.
The equation of motion for an object with constant acceleration is,
s = ut + 1/2 at²
Where,
s = vertical displacement, which is height of the building in our case
u = initial velocity of the ball = 0

Substituting all the above values in the equation of motion,
s = (0 × 1.62) + (1/2 × 9.8 × 1.62²)
s = 0 + (25.72/2) = 12.86 m = 12.9 m which is the height of the building

Therefore the building is 12.9m tall

Which of these belongs to a tropic level with the most energy?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Berries is the correct answer because it is the produce in your pyramid and as each living thing is devoured by another there is less energy. For instance the berry has the most energy because it’s energy has just come from the sun. But then an insect eats it and consumes most of its energy but some energy is released into the atmosphere. Then a rodent eats the bug and consumes its energy but yet again some energy is released into the atmosphere. So each time there is less and less energy. Does that help any?

Explanation:

it’s energy has just come from the sun. But then an insect eats it and consumes most of its energy but some energy is released into the atmosphere.
